About Us

Don’s Leather Cleaning, Inc. was established in 1971 in Minnesota by Mr. Donald A. Poach. Soon after his Navy service in the late 1940’s Don Poach started his cleaning career at Reed Cleaners located in Fargo, North Dakota. As he worked his way up to the position of General Manager, Don became an expert in all aspects of laundering, dry cleaning and then developed the leather cleaning division in the 1960’s.

Mr. Poach realized that leather cleaning was indeed a specialized field and dedicated the rest of his years to that profession. Dart Poach, Don's son, joined his father in 1975, and today is the company President.

Mr. Poach and his dedicated staff are determined on a daily basis to always improve processes involved in leather cleaning. One of Darts favorite sayings of his father is “When you stop being better-You stop being good”.

Mr. Dart Poach is a founding member of The Professional Leather Cleaners Association. The PLCA is committed to establishing the highest standards for quality leather cleaning and restoration services in North America. This is supported by a dedication to ongoing research and training and a commitment to developing environmentally-friendly practices.

Dart and his staff would be honored to clean and restore your treasured item either through your favorite professional drycleaner or direct using UPS or US Mail.
